Why WeAdminister Universal Screeners

All of our K-7 students and parents deserve the right to know, 3 times a year, how their children are achieving and progressing on reading and mathematics fundamentals. The universal screeners provide students, parents, and teachers with consistent, norm referenced, and percentile ranked data that can be acted upon in real time. STAAR only comes once a year, changes from time to time, and results are not always reported in a timely manner that allow schools and parents to act on the data. Our universal screeners allows us to do all of those things. It is imperative that we administer the screeners with fidelity and report accurate data to our parents in a timely manner.
